    what a surprise :)
    not even the backing singers can cover how weak their voices are…
    of course, “Lipstick” suited them way better…

    and is it just me or is Linda Martin a very vain person?

    when i first HEARD the song, i thought it’s ok and they might be more mature now…then i saw them yesterday, and it’s just like last year…just with ugly black costumes, instead of ugly red costumes, and the song is getting on my nerves, too!
